"Todd is a proven scorer with the ability to play both wings," Flames general manager Darryl Sutter said. "He expressed to us that he wanted to play in Canada and that desire along with signing him to a one-year deal was important to our philosophy. He wanted to play on a good team and it fit our money. Additionally, our captain, Jarome Iginla, was a strong supporter of Todd and wanted him on our team."

Bertuzzi had 14 goals and 26 assists last season for the Anaheim Ducks.

The 6-foot-3, 231-pound forward has 580 points in 793 career regular-season games.
